Sixteen City-States, Xuanfeng Building.
Zuo Dao looked up and said:
"Finally we've reached this hellish place."
The journey wasn't long, but there were enough things going on.
Naturally, Zuo Mou expressed serious emotion about this.
Fortunately, there were no more strange incidents along the way into the sixteen city-states. Otherwise, he would have had to delete the life book and make a new one, so he could check whether there was something wrong with the life book, and then sacrifice a few small paper figures to eliminate the bad luck.
Elsa also agreed with this, and Li Yuexia on the side could only pretend that she didn't hear anything.
Zuo Dao then turned to look at Elsa and said:
"Let's go."
The implication is that now is Elsa's moment!
After saying that, the three of them walked all the way to the inside of the building.
Xuanfeng Building is the headquarters of Xuanfeng Grain Industry Group.
It was also Zuo Dao who chose the role that day at Wen Yue's home.
Xuanfeng Grain Industry controls nearly 60% of Hecarim's basic food channels, and accounts for 30% of Bahamut's various regions. It is an important presence on the border, and it is also a tacit understanding of the border forces. As far as I know, there are companies with Huayu background behind them.
Or in other words, in the border land, it is difficult for an enterprise to develop and establish a foothold in such a ghost place without the secret endorsement and support of a certain domain. Just assassinations and sabotage are enough for those stupid young people to drink a big pot. If you have enough force, congratulations, you will receive friendly attention from all domains.
[To be honest, I have been using it recently
Looks good.
Two drama queens.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan nodded and showed a warm smile.
He whispered to the secretary next to him, and then the secretary took Li Yuexia away. When leaving, he closed the door of this living area and set it to prohibit entry.
After all the outsiders left, Chen Xuan made a gesture to indicate that there was no problem in this place, and the three of them sat down immediately.
The previous pretense of Zuo Dao and Zuo Dao disappeared, and instead Chen Xuan showed seriousness and seriousness:
"To be honest, I'm still surprised that you decided to activate my line.
"The situation of the two of you surprised me even more. Of course, I didn't mean anything else."
So he said.
Chen Xuan, the actual controller of Xuanfeng Grain Industry.
When he was young, he went out to work hard with his family elders, starting from the most basic things.
However, not long after, his elder was shot to death by his peers due to competition issues. He, who was less than 25 years old, shouldered the heavy responsibility, or in other words, started the only part of the industry that had not been cannibalized. He started from scratch and began to make a name for himself. own chapter.
However, no matter whether they are competitors or partners, everyone has a clear understanding of this fortune-making achievement.
That is, there is a "person" behind Chen Xuan.
This is a normal thing. In the border areas, behind some companies, there can even be inexplicable cooperation between several domains.
Chen Xuan's tone did not sound like a subordinate. He was Wen Yue's absolute confidant. Zuo Dao and Elsa had the right to use his resources and even destroy his many years of business.
But before that, they had to come up with a plan that satisfied Chen Xuan.
Facing Chen Xuan's opening, Elsa said first:
"This decision was made by Mr. Zuo Dao."
Hearing this, Chen Xuan glanced at Zuo Dao, who looked a little pale, and said thoughtfully:
"It seems that you will take the lead in recent decisions?"
Zuo Dao sipped his tea, then nodded:
"We won't be entering Bahamut anytime soon."
Elsa had already known Zuo Dao's remarks and was not surprised.
Chen Xuan quite agreed: "After all, Hecarim is the border of the Chinese domain. No matter how arrogant Alaiman is, they will not reach out here. If they take action, it will involve the issue of border security. The other party does not want to A war breaks out between domains."
Chen Xuan commented like this, and then said:
"Then you two chose to stay with me. What do you want to do specifically?"
He knew the ultimate goal of Knives Out.
That is to regain these unowned lands, but how to regain it? Each action and even each sequence person has completely different entry points and acting styles.
As a local snake, Chen Xuan was very curious about what Zuodao and Elsa would do if they chose to "live" in his place.
Regarding Chen Xuan's question, Zuo Dao glanced at Elsa at this time, and she understood instantly.
Elsa started communication in consciousness space, connecting Zuo Dao and Chen Xuan together.
At this time, Zuo Dao explained his specific reasons:
"Ms. Elsa has been living with that person all these years, living in the borderlands all year round. As for Bahamut, she has never set foot again due to various reasons. ” Zuo Dao said.
"Well, I've also heard that it's Master Nan Ming?" ” Chen Xuan replied.
"Yes. ” Elsa confirmed that she had told Zuo Dao about these things in the past few days.
The leftist in the consciousness space hummed and continued:
"We have learned about the situation on Bahamut's side. The Khalsa family is currently divided into three main branches, each controlling different places and gathering in different barrier cities.
"Actually, there are more branches than this. It is conservatively estimated that there are five to seven branches. But except for these three on the surface, the others are not so happy.
"It goes without saying what the ingredients of these three companies are, but also what our goals are.
It’s clear, but the problem that lingers with us is also obvious. What Huayu needs is a place that we have absolute control over, not a place where intrigues remain after we officially intervene.
"In other words, before that, we need to find out the situation of Elsa's family first.
"This is why I chose Mr. Chen Xuan.
"Elsa and I will spread our identities to you, and then wait for the reaction of those in the Elsa family. During this period, who will be wary of us and make internal moves, and who will try to contact us. Among the people we contact, Who is swaying and who is directly showing favor?
"This process may take several months, or it may take several years. During this period, we will be responsible for some other things, and Elsa will play a role in Hecarim between the front and backstage.
"As Mr. Chen Xuan said, neither the Alaiman Territory nor our Chinese Territory have any intention to fight a territorial war at this time. At least on the surface, both sides will limit the fight to the level of a proxy war. This pair of For us now, it is an advantage. 』
Zuo Dao said this concisely and concisely.
He did not introduce the matter in detail, but only introduced the current plan.
He believed that Chen Xuan had the intelligence to work out the specific situation and division of labor.
Just as he thought, when Chen Xuan listened to his introduction, the fluctuations in his consciousness space were very calm, but he didn't ponder for long before he quickly said:
"The implication is that I need to be responsible for Bahamut's intelligence control. Not only the feedback above, we also need all the understanding ourselves. Secondly, I am responsible for providing the best protection and resource operation for you two. Finally, I will use my One's own "role".
"But if one guess is true, then I will have objections to this proposal. First of all, according to the premise that you choose Chen, it is an advantage in the case of a proxy war, which shows the current state of Bahamut's warlord melee. , which is also an advantage for us.
"Then it's not difficult to guess, Mr. Zuo, you want to intervene through food?" If so, I feel that this entry point is not complete. First of all, the border areas and even the chaotic areas are not in the true sense of lack of food and clothing. It is undeniable that the people living here have very high expenses in all aspects. big.
"But this is only true for people who do not rely on "big companies", and food stability is naturally the same. We destroyed the food channels, which seems to have a great impact. It will be chaotic for a few months at most, and other channels will naturally take over, and this will It will have an impact on Huayu.
"As Bahamut, who was once infinitely close to being a member of the Chinese Domain, even though what happened back then caused him to break away again, this was just a lack of progress in the conditions for retrieval. If we look deeper, we still have a basic foundation, but once this happens If this method is implemented and improperly controlled in the end, things will be very troublesome. 』
Chen Xuan said, his consciousness fluctuated very sincerely, and his emotions did not hide his concern for the people outside the country.
Chen Xuan's words are of course correct. He is not trying to argue, but is taking a middle-of-the-road attitude from the perspective of the mission and the actual people.
However, Zuo Dao chuckled in the conscious space:
"Mr. Chen is overly worried, at least I don't have this idea at the moment. 』
Zuo Dao's reply made even Elsa a little confused.
From her point of view, because of the previous conversation between the two and the preparation she had received from this heretical path, Elsa had every reason to believe that the boy could definitely do that kind of thing.
However, his denial made Elsa unsure why she chose Chen Xuan for the foreshadowing.
Fortunately, Zuo Dao did not sell out. Seeing that neither Elsa nor Chen Xuan spoke, and maintained a high degree of attention in the consciousness space, he continued to say——
"There are two reasons for choosing Mr. Chen as our first-level identity.
"The first is your resources. Xuanfeng Grain Industry has long had close contacts with Bahamut's various fortresses, gathering places, and walking tribes. This provides absolute help for intelligence collection and understanding of local conditions. In Mr. Wen Yue's list, you are also the biggest card in her hand.
"Second point, your headquarters is in the sixteen city-states, away from Baham
Especially recently, whether it is for others to contact us or for us to contact others, it provides objective convenience on the schedule. We will talk about this later. The most important thing is that, as said, at a certain critical time, we need you. Xuanfeng Grain Industry plays a role.
"However, it will not be carried out with this incomplete plan of extermination. Mr. Chen Xuan can rest assured. Since we have received the serial title, our behavior is equivalent to that of Huayu. Naturally, it will not have an adverse impact on the image of Huayu." .
"At this stage, it's actually very simple, just the same things.
"First, Mr. Chen Xuan provided us with a suitable residence and we live here.
"Second, gradually spread the existence of Elsa to the ears of the Khalsa family, whether it is the three branches on the surface, or the few branches that we can confirm exist secretly, even the ones that are anonymous and uncertain, You also have to pass it on and then observe the trends.
"Third, be prepared for an attack from either the Khalsa family or the Alaiman region. 』
Zuo Dao gave an answer to Chen Xuan's question.
The three of them are basically addressed as Mr. and Madam. There are also some helpless reasons for this. Zuo Dao and Elsa are influenced by each other when they met in the Flower City.
Zuo Dao was against Chen Xuan because there was no clear professional title between them.
To put it crudely, Chen Xuan is an intelligence officer. His identity in Huayu is a blank slate. Perhaps he will not be assigned a clear rank until he has achieved success and retires. Although Zuo Dao has the identity of an investigator, he This rank does not apply to conversations between them.
"I see. ” Chen Xuan replied in his consciousness space, and then asked again:
"However, Mr. Zuo still hasn't told me specifically what you are going to do.
"If my authority in "Operation" is not enough, then I hope to get the third series of written replies. 』
Chen Xuan noticed the problem, and Zuo Dao only explained the reasons, but did not specify what he was going to do.
Even so, the young man's current idea has already gained his preliminary approval, so the tone of his voice has also changed.
"I can't say what I want to do specifically. It's not that I don't believe Mr. Chen. ” Zuo Dao replied.
At this time, he changed his words and asked: "Speaking of which, I submitted a list of materials to Mrs. Wen Yue before departure. I wonder how Mr. Chen's current work progress is?" 』
In reality, Chen Xuan nodded. He took out the terminal from his pocket, brought up the interface and handed it to Zuo Dao:
"Mr. Zuo needs a lot of materials. They don't have specific scientific names or synonyms. They only have physical properties. This aspect of the work is difficult. The current progress is about 70%.
"So I organized and planned the categories. At the same time, there are many similar spiritual materials with the characteristics you need. I also collected them and categorized them for you to take a look at. 』
After taking over the left side of the terminal and flipping through it carefully, Elsa also came over and poked her head around.
Reading one by one, with a smile on his lips, he replied through the space of consciousness:
"Very good, Mr. Chen is interested.
“Although something is missing, my idea may be realized.
"In this way, I will submit the specific plan to Wen Yue for review, and she will determine the authority.
"If you can know, you will naturally get the relevant transfer. If not, Mr. Chen will cooperate with me."
"how? 』
Zuo Dao looked at him with calm eyes.
At this time, the consciousness space fell into brief silence.
Questions popped up in Chen Xuan's heart...
——Good guy, have you been hiding and tucking me all day long?
——Even Wen Yue and others don’t know what exactly you want to do?
——This guy doesn’t even think about what he wants to do, right?
For a moment, everyone's mood was complicated.
Only Zuo Dao is smiling.
